The Kitchen Table Home Decorating Conversations

For the gardeners

last year

I love working in the garden. I also enjoy watching shows about gardening and gardens. If you have ever watched and enjoyed any of Monty Don's shows, I came across one this evening that I had never seen: Monty Don's American Gardens on Brit Box. I watched the first episode of that series. My favorite parts, of course, were the ones near Philadelphia. Jojoco, he visits Longwood and his favorite part is also mine there-the quiet part that he calls the Park. He visits Chanticleer in Wayne which has always been one of my favorites since it opened to the public. It is quite amazing and not to be missed if you are ever in the area.

So, if you are ever sitting around on a rainy day, this might be a nice diversion.

If you have access to Amazon Prime video, there is a "live" TV channel dedicated to Monty Don that replays all his programs

I have seen his shows but not in quite a while. I recall him as warm and genuine and realistic. I may need to get Britbox.

I don't have BritBox, either, but I am addicted to gardening shows on YouTube, although it does take some weeding through the AI "gardens"!!

I watch his shows on You Tube, although this one was on BritBox. I will see if I can find it on You Tube.

I love Monty Don and Chanticleer. I used to live in Philly and visited about six times per year. I miss it dearly. Thanks for the heads up on this show.

Maybe the Longwood section will enhance my appreciation. I have never much cared for it, though have been glad that the crowds flock to it instead of Chanticleer.
